R: Third request: what *is* the warranty on the Freerunner?

According to Italian/European Union law: 1) the customer can return the package within 14 days from the receipt of the good bought on-line. No matter if it's perfectly working or if it is DOA. This is not yet a warranty, it applies to goods that were bought by corrispondence or on-line where th

R: CAD files for the case of the Neo will be made available

Having used it for some time, my impression is that Blender is a 3d modeler which is very much focussed on rendering, while other aspects of 3d design are weak (e.g. keeping control over measurement - no quotation lines). The user interface is unconventional, it is based on a coordinated use of ke

Today I was in Wien airport which has wifi and is publicly accessible (although you can't reach Internet). I was there with my laptop and I could easily browse other devices nearby, and there were many. I also spotted some iPhones which advertised their ssh service and some other devices which adve

Welcome back! Thanks for the news and for your efforts to keep the OpenMoko project going and growing. Thanks for your excellent work, and thanks to all in FIC and Neo/OpenMoko group that supported the project so far. That said, our ship lost sight of the shore long ago. Eventually, the ship crew

R: Concern for usability and ergonomics

Well I don't like this statement at all. Don't get me wrong, I can guess (some of) the reasons behind the plain words. But then I wonder whether there is really any transparency in the development of Neo/OpenMoko? What does it mean, being silent and talking in riddles seemingly for our own benefit

R: UI ideas/questions or can we animate things as smooth as iPhone?

I agree that target #2 are my parents, but at this stage iPhone-like fluidity should't be at the top of the priority list. The first prerequisite is responsiveness. The device must react quickly, say: - <15s device startup - <1s startup of commonly used application (dialer, con

R: R: Some thoughts about iphone & openmoko

We're (hopefully) soon going to have a wonderful device in hand, with unprecedented capabilities. I don't know well FIC, but they probably don't have the weight of neither Motorola nor Apple in order to market the product regardless of its actual performance. So, in order for the Neo to be a succes

R: Some thoughts about iphone & openmoko

I also share your concerns. Some years ago I switched from a Motorola phone to a Nokia phone right because (at that time, at least) the Nokia UI was far superior in features and intuitiveness. Even today I would never, ever buy a Motorola! To me, GUI usability is probably the most prominent factor

R: Camera and MMS

Voting for integrated Camera as well for future releases of the Neo. Not using it very much, but it can be handy every now and then. In time I expect that the OpenMoko platform API will grow to support a wider range of peripheral families than are available in the Neo at the moment (camera, wifi,

R: Need info on AGPS

Some additional questions on this subject: 1. Is there any "A-GPS standard" whatsoever? 2. I have heard elsewhere (Wikipedia) that in A-GPS the computation effort is shared between the device and the A-GPS Server. According to a previous post, the device just downloads the ephemeris table so there

Nice to keep as a personal record, BTW that's done in several time tracking apps. But who's willing to tell the world where (s)he usually hangs out and when during the day? Cheers Michele _ Da: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Per conto di Oleg L. Sverdlov Inviato: martedì 23

R: is google.com down? Move this list to a BB/Forum system?

My feeling is that long-term development projects usually stick to mailing lists (thinking of kde, subversion & family, ...). Independent groups usually establish a forum. Wiki is good to set things down after some discussion took place. I think it's mostly a matter of getting used to a way of sta
